"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another
in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing
with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in
the name of the Lord Jesus giving thanks to God
and the Father by Him."
Colossians 3: 16-17
BELOW I LIST JUST FIFTEEN OF SCORES OF POEMS I HAVE COMPOSED OVER MORE THAN FOUR DECADES OF CHRISTIAN MINISTRY. WE KNOW GOD LOVES POETRY…AS WHOLE BOOKS OF THE BIBLE WERE WRITTEN IN HEBREW POETIC VERSE: PSALMS, PROVERBS, ECCLESIASTES, LAMENTATIONS, TO NAME A FEW. WHEN WE SING FROM OUR HYMNBOOKS, WE ARE ACTUALLY SINGING POEMS. I CLAIM NO SPECIAL POETIC ABILITY, BUT I OFFER THESE FEW AS JUST A SAMPLE, THAT PERHAPS SOMEONE MAY BE BLESSED BY OR ENCOURAGED TO WORK EVEN HARDER FOR THE SAVIOR.
